In Prince Clumsy you set out as a somewhat clumsy hero on a perilous quest to rescue the woman of your dreams from the clutches of her wicked sister. Your path leads through both indoor and outdoor areas filled with enemies and hazards. Armed with a dagger, you fight off the henchmen guarding the route to the castle. Along the way you can collect bread and ale to restore your health and gather bonus items for extra points. Not everything you find is helpful though – traps such as super glue, poison and even a ball and chain can quickly complicate your adventure.
